Üldinfo

Each and every resolution that is passed in this hall should be based on the best and the most diverse analysis possible, and always consider Estonia as a whole. The Riigikogu must not act as the rubber stamp of the Government and produce defective laws; there should be more debates instead of overriding others with a road roller.

Conservative People’s Party of Estonia Faction
State Budget Control Select Committee, Environment Committee
